Concert for Honduran Resistance

Entrance: $10 (no one turned away for lack of funds)
Bands: Pachamama, Jumpship, Carlos Yamil Lumbi

The struggle continues in Honduras. The supposed agreement between President Manuel Zelaya and the "golpista" government led by Roberto Micheletti has fallen apart. The agreement, created at the behest of the US state department, proved to be an empty shell under whose authority Micheletti created a unilateral "unity" government. The US is waffling about its position on the legitimacy of the government and the status of the November 29 elections in Honduras, while the Organization of American States (with the exception of the US) has declared that it will not recognize the elections. President Zelaya remains holed up in the Brazilian embassy and the Honduran Resistance has vowed to continue its battle against the coup. 

Here in Minnesota, the Minnesota Cuba Committee is part of the newly formed group, Hands Off Honduras, and is helping to organize the concert on November 28 to support the Honduran resistance.
